She ‘could never have dreamt’ -- she told journalist Hilda Fourie of Beeld -- ‘that the four men who arrived in police uniforms were robbers instead’. Her black carer, Mrs Rebecca Ngcanga, had told Mrs Brink that there were ‘police officers at the gate who wanted to see if all the workers had legal documentation’… Instead the ‘police officers’ walked inside, forced the workers to kneel with their heads to the floor, and tied them up. They grabbed Mrs Brink by an arm, took the old lady to her room, ripped off her watch and diamond-ring, tied her hands and feet together, beat her and demanded to know where ‘the safe’ was. “They threatened that I didn’t talk they would kill me,’ said the old lady, who is a heart-sufferer. She opened the safe - and then they pushed rags into her mouth, covered her head in cloths and started strangling her before leaving her on the bed. While leaving the homestead, the old woman rolled off the bed and found her loaded firearm lying underneath it – just in time to see a black hand grabbing her bed-room door-jamb. In her fear, she fired off a shot -- but it turned out that she’d shot a gardener in his hand because the workers had managed to get loose and were rushing to her aid. Mrs Brink then phoned her grandson – who stopped a police van enroute his rush to the smallholding and described the vehicle in which the gang had fled. The description was immediately broadcast over the police radio, said Lt Col Eugene Opperman, and members from the Mamelodi-East SAPS spotted the car there, forced it off the road, and arrested the driver. After questioning they also arrested another gang-member and are still looking for the other two. http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/Rowers-in-uniforms-rand-hartlyer-aan-20100917

Urgent plea to help feed impoverished whites:

Adriana Stuijt, a.j.stuijt@knid.nl writes: I sent a request to my church in The Netherlands for urgent funds to be sent to the Helpende Hand private-charity in South Africa.This volunteer-organisation tries desperately to keep alive some 800,000 impoverished, homeless poor ‘whites’- mostly Afrikaners of whom 63% are older than sixty years. they are languishing in some 640 squatter camps countrywide without receiving any government food-aid or -benefits. They are even denied food-coupons from the ANC-government because they are ‘whites.’

They became this poor since 1994 because the government – under their so-called ‘black economic empowerment laws’ – denies these often much better-educated artisan-Afrikaners any access to the entire labour market in South Africa. Most – 96% – of these camp-inmates are Afrikaners, Protestants and 63% are older than 60, writes Solidarity trade union in an urgent letter to SA pres Jacob Zuma.

Their long-term survival is poor: I told my dominee that these Afrikaners have been malnutritioned for so long that the elderly and children face a starvation-death. Many are only given one meal a week because the private Afrikaner-run charity is short of cash.

And also important is this fact: the Dutch and Belgian governments contribute greatly to this suffering because the European development-aid funds also send millions of Euros to help South Africa in its ‘black-economic empowerment’ laws. It is unique in the world – except under the Nazi-regime in Europe (1933-1945) -- that the ANC government has felt the need to make laws specifically barring minorities from the labour market. On most countries, laws are made to protect the minorities from unfair competition with majority-groups… http://censorbugbearadriana.spaces.live.com/?_c02_vws=1

5,5million taxpayers have to support 11-million poor black families – but poor whites often are denied such benefits

South Africa only has about 5,5-million taxpayers and 50-million residents. However this has to pay for a massive welfare-benefit system: 11-million poor black residents in 2010 are receiving a huge variety of benefit payouts from the state-coffers. For instance: for every black child born, a monthly social-grant subsidy of R250 is given – thus teenage-pregnancies have soared. Moreover, the live-in grandparents of the teen mothers not only receive a Foster Grant of R850 a month for the same child but also their old-age pensions: thus each family now concentrates on producing as many babies as they can. And if the babies die – the child-death rate in SA has soared because of the collapsing health-care system -- the family registers the death of only one of the children in their care. Social-welfare benefits are also given for old-age pensioners and the unemployed adults - in addition to the Foster-Grants and such families all also receive monthly housing-grants and monthly food-coupons. None of these benefits are granted to impoverished whites. http://www.praag.co.za/menings-magazine-196/briewe-magazine-230/8781-so-word-die-land-geplunder.html

Sept 16 2010 - Lukas Groenewald, 54, fought desperately with a home-invader, shooting and injuring him to keep the black man away from his wife, daughter and disabled son in their Florauna home in Pretoria North. Sept 16 2010 -

The man had broken into their home while the family – wife Zelda, 47, daughter Chanté, 15, and her disabled brother Nóann, 18, were asleep. It’s only when the couple realised that the home-invader had stolen their cellphones right from their bedside-tables that they woke up. The daughter said she ‘pretended to sleep so that the invader – described as ‘bald-headed’- would not realise she was awake while he sat on his haunches and rifled through her school-books (?). “He crawled from my room, heard him go down to the ground floor, and woke up my dad,’ the girl told Beeld journalist Hilda Fourie.

Groenewald took his firearm and flash light and walked through the house – and spotted the man hiding in the kitchen. “He must have nudged something because I heard a noise. When I turned around, he jumped up and attacked me. I saw something in his hand. The two men started struggling with each other and Groenewald fired off several shots while the fight raged up and down the stairs. “He kept on attacking me, even though he’d been shot,’ said Groenewald. Chanté had also alerted the SAPS and they arrived within minutes. SAPS constable William Mahloale confirmed that he’d ‘heard the struggle inside and rushed in to arrest the man. He’s now in stable condition in a local hospital under police guard and expected for a remand-appearance in the local magistrate court soon. http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/Inbreker-val-selfs-na-skoot-nog-aan-20100917

2010-09-17 – PRETORIA. While the ANC-regime is trying very hard to rewrite South African history by removing as many traces of Afrikaner-Boer history from the landscape as they can, including a huge name-changing programme, the Boer history is literally popping out of the ground in Pretoria.

Archeology students Jackie de Souza and Gerhard Jordaan, left, of the University of Pretoria found Boer-Republican era artifacts in Roper Street near the university while walking past a trench which was being dug up by contractors laying a cable in this historic section, where fierce battles were fought between the invading British colonial forces and the Boer defenders under the spirited leadership of a world-famous Boer-citizen, namely general Christiaan de Wet.

The students were walking to class when they spotted bottle-pieces and recognised these as rare bottles from the 1899-1902 era Boer factory Eerste Fabricken, founded by entrepreneur Sammy Marks – a friend of President Paul Kruger, and who had made a significant contribution to the industrial, mining and agricultural development of the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek. (Boer Republic of the Transvaal).

The students had just studied this material in class and this made them recognise the artifacts in the trench, they said.

They called in experts who confirmed that the bottles came from Eerste Fabricken (“first factories” in Dutch).

”Those bottles are very rare because most of the bottles in that era when the British had invaded the Boer Republics, were imported from Great Britain. Sammy Marx’ factory was closed by the British while the colonial military forces used the nearby Pretoria Boys High School and the Pretoria East primary schools as a hospital-camp,” said a expert.

Digging has now been suspended until the university can examine the site more thoroughly.

The term "genocide" was coined by legal scholar Raphael Lemkin in 1943, writing:

'Generally speaking, genocide does not necessarily mean the immediate destruction of a nation, except when accomplished by mass killings of all members of a nation. It is intended rather to signify a coordinated plan of different actionsaiming at the destruction of essential foundations of the life of national groups, with the aim of annihilating the groups themselves.

The objectives of such a plan would be the disintegration of the political and social institutions, of culture, language, national feelings, religion, and the economic existence of national groups, and the destruction of personal security, liberty, health, dignity and lives of the members of such groups...
